Tea Party Protestors Shout N-Word at Congressman John Lewis

The brain-less morons in the Tea Party screamed racial slurs at congressman John Lewis

(WASHINGTON) — House Democrats heard it all Saturday — words of inspiration from President Barack Obama and raucous chants of protests from demonstrators. And at times it was flat-out ugly, including some racial epithets aimed at black members of Congress.

Most of the day’s important work leading up to Sunday’s historic vote on health care was being done behind closed doors. Democratic leaders cajoled, bargained and did what they needed to nail down the votes they will need to finally push Obama’s health care overhaul bill through the House.

But much else about the day was noisy, emotional and right out in the open. After more than a year debating the capstone of Obama’s domestic agenda and just hours to go before the showdown vote, there was little holding back.

The tone was set outside the Capitol. Clogging the sidewalks and streets of Capitol Hill were at least hundreds — no official estimate was yet available — of loud, furious protesters, many of them tea party opponents of the health care overhaul.

Rallies outside the Capitol are typically orderly, with speeches and well-behaved crowds. Saturday’s was different, with anger-fueled demonstrators surrounding members of Congress who walked by, yelling at them. “Kill the bill,” the largely middle-aged crowd shouted, surging toward lawmakers who crossed the street between their office buildings and the Capitol.

The motorcade that carried Obama to Capitol Hill to whip up support for the bill drove past crowds waving signs that read “Stop the spending” and “Get your hands out of my pocketbook and health care.” Many booed and thrust their thumbs down as Obama rode by. As police held protesters back to clear areas for lawmakers outside the Capitol Obama’s speech, some jeered and chanted at the officers, “You work for us.”

Rep. Andre Carson, D-Ind., told a reporter that as he left the Cannon House Office Building with Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., a leader of the civil rights era, some among the crowd chanted “the N-word, the N-word, 15 times.” Both Carson and Lewis are black. “It was like going into the time machine with John Lewis,” said Carson, a large former police officer who said he wasn’t frightened but worried about the 70-year-old Lewis, who is twice his age. “He said it reminded him of another time.”

Kristie Greco, spokeswoman for Democratic Whip Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., said a protester spit on Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., who is black. Clyburn, who led fellow black students in integrating South Carolina’s public facilities a half century ago, called the behavior “absolutely shocking.” “I heard people saying things today that I have not heard since March 15, 1960, when I was marching to try to get off the back of the bus,” Clyburn told reporters.

The Honorable John Lewis has seen the likes of them all his life. They didn’t break his spirit then and they won’t break his spirit now. I’m so glad this soldier lived to see another historical moment. God bless him.

Amazing; yet not surprising. My first reaction is be ashamed of such behavior, but I also cannot help feeling outrage for such display of stupid, infantile, knee-jerk reaction. I imagine that this does not reflect the views of most tea baggers, or neocons, or even more traditional conservatives. As such, they should be protesting this behavior – after all, they are quick to complain when similar (yet not as despicable) behavior pops up from the far left.

Racist is a cover up for hatred in my opinion. Some people are just hateful! this is why the spit and racial slurs, that are passed from generation to generation. “Colored” LMFAO, not in this generation .

He/She chose the right one to spit on – he’s a Reverend as well and said he won’t press charges. To not press charges is a problem. It ain’t no way you gonna spit on me and not get some kind of consequence or repercussion.

I heard that Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo won’t confirm or deny that he was spat on. So could be another spin to make all those who oppose the bill look bad. But, if he really was spat on…the person responsible should be brought up on charges for this heinous act.
